Caddisfly Add-on for Grasshopper Main Poster

Ardaena: Network of Professionals 

This project was presented to Ardaena in 2018 by Vikonen Company from Turkey to create an alternative to the process of designing, optimizing and producing manufacturing parts for this project.

Proposal for an alternative design

Caddisfly is a series of tools for Complex Structures and Free Forms Detail Designing. The main idea has been based upon having the process from Conceptual Design, Analyze to Construction on Free Form Structures Automatically by less than 7 clicks. It is being developed by Python and C# both for a better flexibility up and running for different components.

Rhinoceros 3D is a 3D computer graphics and computer-aided design application software developed by the American company Robert McNeel & Associates. Utilizing NURBS mathematical modeling to produce precise representations of free-form, curving surfaces, Rhino is used in industries such as architecture, industrial design, automotive design, product design, and multimedia and graphic design.

Grasshopper is a visual programming language and environment that pairs with Rhino 3D, a software program also developed by Robert McNeel & Associates. Grasshopper allows users to build algorithms by dragging and connecting components on a digital canvas. From parametric modeling and fabrication, lighting performance analysis, to building energy consumption, Grasshopper provides an intuitive way to explore design without requiring programming experience.
